"This is the hard part. Some of the roots had curled and its a pain to get the root to go down and the top to go up. I think I did ok but one or two the root might not be exactly down. Is this ok?"

They'll prolly survive, but the root is supposed to curve.
It's how they shed the husk.

Normally, they fall to a crack in the ground and land, (with luck and aerodynamics), pointy end up.
When the seed pops, the tap root first pokes straight up and makes an immediate u-turn.
This gives it strength to push down into the earth.
Once the tap root is well set, it pushes the husk up through the soil and this spreads the husk open, usually leaving it below the soil surface.

Well, my fingers are stating to hurt, so...

Weezard Reviewed by Weezard on . Help with putting seeds in rockwool Tried five with the paper towel method and a little hydrogyn peroxide on top and all germed. Sweet. Well I put the rockwool in water and let them soak for a few hours. Then I tested the ph, it was 7.9 so I lowered it to 6.2 and let soak. I added 3 drops of super thrive and let sit. I took the rockwool out of the soaking cup and let them drain off a little. I placed the rockwool in a tubberware on a few paper napkins and started grabbing each seed with tweezers. This is the hard part. :mad: Some Rating: 5
